The County citizens group “Embracing Arlington Arts” is hosting the first annual Celebration of the Arts in Arlington on October 5, 2017. We are planning for over 500 attendees to “come as their favorite artist, piece of artwork or other art themed costume” and celebrate the importance of the arts in our County with food, music, drinks and special appearances of arts representatives and dignitaries, including Master of Ceremonies Remy Munasifi (the Arlington Rap Guy). 100% of the net proceeds will be donated to Arlington Independent Media (AIM) which houses the County’s only radio station WERA (96.7FM). In turn, WERA radio broadcasters will help publicize art events and performances being held throughout the year.
